Penpals by Post

I've been wondering lately, does anyone send letters by regular post anymore?

When I was younger, I used to have a penpal in Arkansas, a penpal in Utah, and a penpal in Europe. Although we've since lost touch, I miss that anticipation of waiting for a letter and checking the mail every day to see if you've received it. I miss the opportunity to see the world through the eyes of someone who doesn't live in the same city as me, who encounters different experiences and people than I probably ever will. 


If anyone has any tips on how to find a snail mail penpal, or is also looking for a penpal, let me know!

I suppose it is a real novelty these days. I do send cards now and again, especially if I want to surprise someone. I think deep down inside we still like to receive mail....the paper kind.
